Previous analysis has shown that overexpression of MepA is an exact mechanism involved in tigecycline resistance apart from the
rpsJ
mutation and is usually dependent on the mutant
mepR
. However, no research has evaluated the effects of diverse mutations discovered in TRSA in MepA.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
